the strongest and mightiest merman Raffy smiling at the Genie levitating above them.

            "What is your wish?" the Golden Genie from the rubbery ducky spoke loudly ignoring Raffy's question to him.

            "Okay, I wish to fly!" was Raffy's loud answer and wish.

            "Wish granted!" the Golden Genie quickly answered, and together with the floating golden rubber ducky, disappeared in the middle of the ocean.

             "I feel so light. This is it, my wish was granted! You're going to see me fly!" the statement of Raffy looking at his mermen friends.

           Everyone, the passengers and the nine mermen looked at each other. And then they all looked to Raffy. And none said a word. Not from above the ship and not from below.
